Dhamaal 4’s Day‑9 Earnings Slip Yet Cross the ₹111 Crore Mark in India

Dhamaal 4, the fourth instalment of the beloved slap‑stick franchise, hit Indian screens on 10 July 2026. By the time its second Saturday rolled around, the picture managed to pull in a modest ₹10 crore net across 8,401 shows. Not exactly a fireworks display, but the haul was enough to push the film’s Indian net earnings past the ₹111 crore threshold.

Let’s break down the numbers. After nine days of running, the domestic net sits at ₹111.50 crore, while the gross (that’s before taxes) ticks up to ₹132.93 crore. Overseas, the comedy has gathered roughly ₹18.75 crore, which lifts the worldwide total to about ₹151.68 crore. In other words, the movie is still chasing the ₹200 crore production budget that was reported earlier this year.

There’s a story behind the dip, too. The film closed its opening week with a solid ₹96 crore net, but the momentum slowed in week two. Friday of the second week saw a collection of ₹5.50 crore, down from the previous Thursday’s ₹6 crore. It’s a classic pattern for big‑budget comedies – a front‑loaded opening followed by a gradual slide.

The ensemble cast returns with familiar faces: Ajay Devgn as the ever‑scheming Guddu, Riteish Deshmukh as Lallan, Arshad Warsi and Jaaved Jaaferi reprising their roles as Adi and Manav. New additions include Ravi Kishan as the quirky Adhoora, Sanjay Mishra as Johnny, and a supporting troupe that adds colour to the treasure‑hunt chaos.

Plot‑wise, the gang – Guddu, Lallan, Paaro, Adi, Manav, Rosy and the ever‑hopeful Adhoora – scramble through a series of madcap misadventures to locate the hidden loot of the nefarious Shaitaan Singh. The premise is the same mad‑dash you’d expect from a Dhamaal film, but critics are divided.

News18’s own review gave the movie just two stars, calling it “excruciatingly exhausting” with a runtime that drags past two hours. The reviewer pointed out that the first half feels like a string of slap‑stick set‑pieces, while the second half’s treasure‑cave sequence borders on monotony. Still, the film’s fan‑base seems to be having a decent time, as reflected in the decent box‑office numbers.

Looking ahead, the franchise’s future hinges on whether the sequel can sustain its run and perhaps close the gap to profitability. Director Indra Kumar hinted that audience response will dictate the next move for the Dhamaal series.
